Potential Bears lineup with the new signings
...
Little harder to figure out with the abundance of dmen plus factoring in who makes the Caps. These are the guys who could see time in Hershey
...
I'm still at the stage of top 6 bottom 6 for forwards & Galiev's camp and play will be a huge factor in how the lines play out. Big opportunity for him after having played a full pro season and a fresh slate with a new coaching staff in Hershey. I agree one of Mitchell or Latta has an opportunity in training camp to make the Caps IF they are no other forward signings and if Wilson isn't given a chance to start the season (for now, I'm in the send Wilson to juniors camp.)
Right now 14F: Byers, Deschamps (RFA QO), Galiev, Johnson, Latta, LeBlanc, Mitchell, Stoa, Syner, Taffe, Watkins, Wellman, Whitmore plus Rechlicz
As to the D, since I have this typed up, taking into account their NHL cap hits, as well as Oleksy and Kundratek requiring waivers.
HBH left shot D: Orlov (NHL/AHL), Schmidt, Brouillette, Schilling, Genoway, plus Wellar (AHL contract)
HBH right shot D: Strachan, Kolomatis, Wey, Flemming
AHL Vets: As of now, five are signed, which is the max allowed to dress for any single game. As of now, no tweener vet on roster. AHL vets: Byers, Johnson, Strachan, Taffe, & Whitmore
As is the norm, I expect some more Hershey AHL or AHL/ECHL signings, plus Caps still have contract room within the 50 contract limit. As to AHL/ECHL D, I'm expecting Cajkovsky to fall in that category based on finishing the season with Hershey and being at dev camp now, but as of now, no official signing announced.
